Two student teams from Fontbonne
Hall were selected to be
a part of the prestigious Urban Bar
Code Project Competition. This competition
is open to only the best high
school students in New York city.
Just as a unique pattern of bars in
a universal product code (UPC) identifies
each item for sale in a store, a
DNA barcode is a DNA sequence that
uniquely identifies each species. In
the Urban Barcode Project, student
research teams use DNA barcoding
to discover and catalog biodiversity
on our planet.
